Fuel cells what?

By Ryan Block

Yeah, you thought we were going to let you forget about your many years spent with AA/AAA
batteries, but you were wrong.  In case you're not ready to start packing hydrogen (or ethanol) in your Gucci bag
just yet, Sanyo (like many others) is still chugging away with NiMH battery chemistry rechargables. 
Yeah, yeah, scoff all you like, but these are pretty big in the prosumer market, and they pack way more juice than you think (2,500mAH, if that means something to you).  They start at about $20 US for a 4 pack, and chargers up to
$60, which is actually pretty reasonable.  And you can even take these on airplanes.
